Staff
Everyone is the best person for something – and EDUC gives you a unique opportunity to share what you do and learn from others.
Share and learn online and offline – Thanks to EDUC’s networks you will be able to share mutually beneficial experiences, tools, and practices.
Find out new ways and experiment – teachers, researchers with administrative staff will assess and compare their own processes and then agree on shared principles to design a common procedure.
EDUC will form common standards within the alliance to ensure that the cooperation within the alliance is as smooth as possible for the staff and other participants. With EDUC’s common brain trust, you can start using the latest technology to enhance your workflow.
Digital workflow – Managers of student and staff mobility will be able to implement fully digital workflows for mobility administration into their work process. The Exchange of IT knowledge and best practices will be facilitated by EDUC’s platform among the eight European university members.
Online and physical local language courses will be shared and accessible on the EDUC portal between universities.
Learn the languages of the alliance – The local language training (French, Italian, German, Czech, Hungarian) contributes to facilitating the implementation of EDUC activities and the development of new cooperation beyond the project. It includes:
- Existing online local language courses within the Alliance at different levels of language courses for staff coming from another country,
- Physical local language courses and existing English courses,
- Tandem system for staff learners: connect with another staff learner from another university and country to practice their own languages together. Regular exchanges will be facilitated on EDUC portal.
EDUC Staff Weeks
EDUC organizes thematic staff weeks aimed at different groups of academic and non-academic staff across the eight universities.
The objective of our Staff Weeks is to create networks across the EDUC universities and learn from each other. These events are well designed to create opportunities for starting and strengthening collaborations as well as foster international experience and in this sense represents our institutions internationally.
Staff Weeks involves physical mobility to partner institutions, which is supported through Erasmus mobility grants for staff mobility.
We encourage all our staff to participate in suitable international Staff Weeks held by our partner universities.
